LibriVox recording of Madame Bovary (Version 2) by Gustave Flaubert. (Translated by Eleanor Marx Aveling.)
Read in English by Peter Dann
Written over a century and a half ago, Madame Bovary is still an extraordinarily fresh, exciting and shockingly frank novel, at once an acute psychological study of a woman drawn into adultery through circumstances we can partly understand, and a sharply-observed comedy that offers a fascinating glimpse of the social and cultural divisions running through French provincial society in the mid nineteenth century. This translation is by Eleanor Marx-Aveling, a prominent social activist and literary translator. She was the youngest daughter of Karl Marx. (Summary by Peter Dann)
